It started, as good quests always do, with a family tale.
Bertha M Wells (Catherine Jane, Joseph, James, William) was born in Pennsylvania in May 1864, to parents Catherine Jane Faulkner and John W Wells.
Bertha married John F Wheeler (1858-1939) in 1886, most likely in Pennsylvania.
The couple had at least three children:
- Catherine Wheeler b. 12 Nov 1893 d. 1968 never married
- Paul Wheeler b. 18 May 1896 d. 2 Apr 1954 never married
- Malcolm Wells Wheeler b. 7 Apr 1904 d. 1990 m. Beatrice Pearce
John Wheeler was a banker in Carbondale, PA. Bertha was a housewife.
John Wheeler died April 2nd 1939 and is buried in the Canaan Corners Cemetery in Wayne Co, PA.
Bertha M Wells Wheeler died February 18th 1949 and is buried alongside her husband.
